All questions/RFI’s must be received no later than June 6, 2020 at 2:00 PM CDT. The Government reserves the right to not answer questions not meeting this timeline if doing so would result in an amendment requiring an extension of the solicitation and to extend would not be in the best interest of the Government. Please address your subject line as follows: South Texas VAMC Hobart Maintenance Service (verbal) questions Will Not be addressed. All responses to questions, which may affect offers, will be incorporated into a written amendment to the Request for Quote. Please CC: the COR Kevin Elliot at Kevin.Elliott@va.gov for all questions/ RFI’s.

SUBMITTAL INSTRUCTIONS: Submit the following in TWO separate files via email at renetta.prince@va.gov. SUBMIT ONLY TO THE CS, RENETTA PRINCE WITH THE VA.

1. PRICE QUOTE

Offer and Certifications

1. Complete blocks 12, 17a, 30(a) (b) and (c) of the SF 1449. In doing so, the offeror accedes to the contract terms and conditions as written in the SOLICITATION, with attachments. The SOLICITATION constitutes the model contract.

1. Complete Contractor information on page 3.

1. Complete PRICE/COST SCHEDULE on pages 4 – 7.

1. Please be advised that to be eligible for award, Offerors are required to register their businesses at https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/.

1. Any acknowledgement of Solicitation Amendments.

1. Include a Cover Letter on your company’s letterhead.

2. TECHNICAL OFFER

a. Company Cover letter with introduction to your company

b. Provide Factor 1: Price: Price will be evaluated for reasonableness. Unrealistically high or low proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating an offeror from competition either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or has submitted an unrealistic offer. Additionally, unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be reason to reject an offer. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed costs/prices rests with the offeror.

c. Factor 2: Technical Capability: Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms, conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to evaluations factors and/or sub-factors if applicable. Offerors other than the OEM shall include OEM approval to service and maintain equipment listed and provide evidence of OEM part distribution approval to show they are an authorized parts and service provider of equipment listed in this requirement.

d. Factor 3: Past Performance: Past performance information must be submitted on no more than three recent contracts (within the last three (3) years) that you consider most relevant in demonstrating your ability to perform the proposed effort. Specifically, prior experience in maintaining or servicing equipment listed in the Statement of Work. Past performance must be similar in nature and scope.

BASIS FOR AWARD

This is a competitive comparative analysis selection in which competing offerors' past performance, technical capability and price will be evaluated to determine who represents the best value to the Government at a price that can be determined fair and reasonable and does not exceed available funding for this requirement. By submission of its offer, the offeror accedes to all solicitation requirements, including terms and conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements. Failure to meet a requirement may result in an offer being determined technically unacceptable. The evaluation process shall proceed as follows:

A. For the purposes of the award of this requirement, the Government intends to evaluate the option to extend services under FAR 52.217-8 as follows:

The evaluation will consider the possibility that the option can be exercised at any time and can be exercised in increments of one to six months, but not for more than a total of six months during the life of the contract. The evaluation will assume that the prices for any option exercised under FAR 52.217-8 will be at the same rates as those in effect under the contract at the time the option is exercised. The evaluation will therefore assume that the addition of the price or prices of any possible extension or extensions under FAR 52.217-8 to the total price of all proposals relative to each other will not affect the ranking of proposals based on price, unless, after reviewing the proposals, the Government determines that there is a basis for finding otherwise. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8.

B. For the purposes of the award of this requirement, the Government intends to evaluate the Option to Extend the Term of the Contract under FAR 52.217-9 as follows:

The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

All documents must be scanned and emailed before the closing date and time in the solicitation. No other submission formats will be accepted. Due to limitations on our email server, please limit your file size to 10mb or under. You may split your submissions up and submit more than one email.

E.3 52.252-1 SOLICITATION PROVISIONS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE (FEB 1998)

This solicitation incorporates one or more solicitation provisions by reference, with the same force and effect as if they were given in full text.

Offerors or quoters are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable.
